Minneapolis trio Alpha Consumer have strong ties to the local scene, members having collaborated with Bon Iver, Brother Ali, Andrew Bird and others. Their own music tilts toward twitchy new wave rock, unafraid to dip their toes into the cheese at times. The band's new album, Meat, will be out April 15 on Totally Gross National Product (Polica, Marijuana Deathsquads) and we've got the premiere of "Ms Positron" from it in this post.
